Jennifer Garner is set to return for the second season of The Last Thing He Told Me on Apple TV+. The popular drama series has been renewed, with the upcoming season drawing inspiration from a sequel novel by Laura Dave. This decision to continue the series reflects its success and the strong connection it has built with viewers, leading the network to expand the story beyond its initial limited series format.
The new season will see the return of key cast members such as Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Angourie Rice, and David Morse. Aaron Zelman is joining the creative team as co-showrunner and executive producer, teaming up with Oscar-winning writer Josh Singer. Their collaboration is expected to elevate the storytelling in the next chapter of Hannah Hall’s journey.
The upcoming six-part Season 2 will be based on the second novel by Holly Jackson, titled ‘Good Girl, Bad Blood’. Jackson will be working on the script alongside Poppy Cogan, who was responsible for the writing on the first series. Production is set to begin next year, building anticipation for what’s to come in the new season.

In the first season, Garner’s character, Hannah Hall, navigates a tumultuous path after her husband’s sudden disappearance. As she seeks answers, her relationship with her stepdaughter Bailey, portrayed by Rice, deepens, adding emotional complexity to their shared quest for truth. This dynamic has resonated strongly with audiences, contributing to the show’s acclaim.
While Season 1 was originally intended as a standalone narrative, its overwhelming reception led Apple TV+ to explore further developments in the storyline. The sequel novel by Laura Dave is set to be released in 2025, aligning perfectly with the anticipated plot for Season 2. Although a specific release date for the new season remains unconfirmed, fans can expect it to debut following the book’s publication.
In a recent interview on the “Today” show, Laura Dave expressed her enthusiasm for the upcoming season and revealed that filming is set to commence soon. She shared her excitement about returning to this beloved project and hinted at having a complete draft ready for production. Jennifer Garner echoed this sentiment, emphasizing her eagerness to continue exploring Hannah’s character and story arc in what promises to be an engaging continuation of their journey.
